Who do I need to bribe to get The Gourds to play the Northeast in general and Woodstock in particular? I'm dead serious. Post instructions.
ReplyDeletespeaking as a northeasterner, I wish I knew. they seem like a natural fit up there, but for whatever reason it just hasn't happened yet. they did make it to albany last year, so who knows. perhaps one day they'll play the bearsville theatre or the mountain jam

personally, I can't figure out why they haven't played princeton, nj, yet...home of the gourds news, yes, but there's so much more: (1) a major university brimming with unwashed and well-read students, (2) a kick-ass record store, and (3) a great college radio station...what else do ya need? well, maybe a half-way decent bar, but let's not allow that to get in the way. they can always play mccarter theatre.

Being the home of TGN should be justification enough for an area visit but just in case it isn't there is a bribe in the mail.
ReplyDeleteWe shall see...
We saw you guys in Teton Village while we were there on vacation, and had a great time! Do you ever make it to Arizona? We'd love to see you over here!
ReplyDeletehi laura,
ReplyDeletejust to clarify, I am not part of the gourds official rock & roll machine. I'm just an old friend of theirs who used to live in austin...and nowadays I like to spend some of my free time running The Gourds News. in answer to your question, though, YES, they do play in arizona (tempe and/or tuscon, from what I remember...maybe other places, as well). the best way to find out where & when is to visit their booking agent's website, where you'll find a question box at the bottom of the page http://www.davismclarty.com/
take care,
d3
p.s. if you know anybody who took pictures of the gourds at the teton villiage show, please ask them to email me at d3gourds@lycos.com thanks.
